Hey guys

Been away all week my computer crashed and it still hasn't been fixed properly just been playing around with a few things and atleast managed to get back on the net.

I was just wondering if any of you had some horses you were looking at as possible cup chances either Caufield or Melbourne. They don't have to be normal household types like the Makybe Divas and Mumifys and so forth.

I would more like to see someone suggest maybe a younger horse coming through or maybe something from overseas or another who has impressed them.

My 2 early looks would go towards the Likes of Tingirana and Braeloch I find them both entriguing prospects. Tingiranas run the SA Oaks was enormous was never better than 3 wide then tried to cut the corner on the turn and found more trouble to be beaten by less than a head was a huge performance. I would be looking at her as a real chance for the Melbourne Cup gives me the impression she can really run it out.

Braeloch I like as a bit of a chance in the Caufield Cup he can sit on the pace which is a huge plus at Caufield and he settled very well in the Derby being beaten by Starcraft is nothing to shy away from I will guarentee you of that and I would be surprised if he comes back if he gets into the field if he doesn't run a race and a half hard at this early stage I know just sitting around and thought would give us something to maybe chat about.

have a feeling Special Harmony will be set for the Caulfield,,,this will prove if she's over rated or not..
Zagalia impressed me last year ,,should be stronger...
tall timbers impressed as well..
and the way Delzao finished in Oz cup beaten by the legend Lonhro was also an eye opener..
Wild Iris seems to be dominating doubles markets..and thers also Hugs dancer who is now being trained by Mcevoy i think,,ran a huge Caulfield last year,,,
i've already got doubles on now..and will continue to place doubles as the race gets closer..heaps of fun doubles :smile:

would love to hear what the English on here rate there horses that are coming over.
I know that Media Puzzle is being talked about but hasn't raced in ages and Vinnie Roe will need a walking stick and Dermott to sneak on the track to water it :wink:
